Many thanks for your reply, Rik.

I’m afraid none of them works. Here is my sample:

\starttext
     \startxtable[option=stretch]
         \startxrow
             \startxcell
                 aaa\blank[none]aaa
             \stopxcell
             \startxcell
                 \ConTeXt\ \contextversion
             \stopxcell
         \stopxrow
         \startxrow
             \startxcell
                 This cell has multiple lines.
                 Vertical spacing is wrong.
             \stopxcell
             \startxcell
                 What am I missing?
             \stopxcell
         \stopxrow
     \stopxtable
\stoptext

I’m using latest beta (2014.04.28 23:24) and the issue happens when
there is text before and after the break.

Pablo,

With your example, I get



which shows a problem in row 2. When I add \\ to the first line of text in row 2 column 1, as shown here

   \starttext
        \startxtable[option=stretch]
            \startxrow
                \startxcell
                    aaa\blank[none]aaa
                \stopxcell
                \startxcell
                    \ConTeXt\ \contextversion
                \stopxcell
            \stopxrow
            \startxrow
                \startxcell
                    This cell has multiple lines.\\
                    Vertical spacing is wrong.
                \stopxcell
                \startxcell
                    What am I missing?
                \stopxcell
            \stopxrow
        \stopxtable
   \stoptext


I get


which perhaps has some faults in the vertical spacing, but is much better than the original. The spacing can be improved by specifying [align=lohi] for that cell.

I get the same result with the other two methods I suggested. Is there a reason that you cannot use one of these methods in row 2 as you do in row 1?

Perhaps we would all benefit from an obeylines alignment option?
